10 Steps to Successful C-Store Retailing

As of December 31, 2016, there were 154,535 convenience stores operating within the United States, and 80.1% of them sold gasoline. During the same year, 7,477 locations closed, with at least 877 c-stores being replaced by another entity in its physical location. Economic factors, in addition to poor planning and operating choices, helped contribute to these failures.
